Forecasts

Dubawi Sands (2/11), Kolisi (5/1), Allegranza (25/1), Eye Knee (66/1)

The very well-bred DUBAWI SANDS stepped up on his 2-y-o debut display when going close in what looked a decent Nottingham novice 17 days ago and, unless newcomer Kolisi turns out to be above average, he should go one better here. Allegranza and Eye Knee will probably both come into thier own in middle-distance handicaps further down the line.
